When Marnie Was There (2014)
思い出のマーニー
aka Omoide no Mânî · Коли Мані була тут · Kada je Marni bila tu · Omoide no Mani · Спогади Мані
Upon being sent to live with relatives in the countryside due to an illness, an emotionally distant adolescent girl becomes obsessed with an abandoned mansion and infatuated with a girl who lives there - a girl who may or may not be real.
🏳️🌈 Studio Ghibli's gorgeous masterpiece tracks Anna's intensely deep, spiritually resonant, and beautifully romanticized bond with the mysterious Marnie, functioning as rich sáfic subtext.
